Semua Bab The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection: Bab 141 - Bab 150

Felix's expression turned rather peculiar when he heard those words. He did not reproach Dora for playing both sides. Instead, he was surprised that Xena would come all the way here because of him. Had she discovered something? "I don't plan on causing trouble for anyone. After all, I'm a law-abiding citizen." Xena furrowed her brows. She stared at Felix for a long while before speaking again. "That's for the best. You know very well how unworthy you are. You think I came here because I was worried about your safety? You're wrong! If it weren't for your contribution in finding the Grimflower last time, I wouldn't care about you at all." She turned and took a few steps, then looked back. "People like you need to know their place. Living an unsatisfactory life should be the least of your worries. If you lose your life, you won't even have the chance to regret it." Felix smiled as he watched the car drive away. "It's better if you think that way." He went to the neighboring v

As night fell, the ballroom on the third floor of a five-star hotel in Avesburgh became the venue for the Stellar Group's business gala. Normally, a company of this caliber would host events at extremely grand locations like resorts. But no one thought that way here, as true luxury came from the company's own solid reputation. Countless people were desperate to attend but lacked the qualifications to receive an invitation. "Dad! Do... Do you think we can really get one of the partnership slots?" asked Sasha nervously. The Quinton family of three had arrived. As the future inheritor of the family business, Sasha naturally wanted their company to be as strong as possible. "I don't know." Beside them, Nattie smiled. "Of course we can. The fact that Felix got Lord Kane to arrange an invitation for us means a lot. Why else would he invite us? No matter what, Felix wouldn't dare mess with your father like that." Hearing this, Sasha's eyes lit up. "You're right, Mom. If Lord Kan

Felix's face remained expressionless. But truthfully, he was caught off guard. This was something he had instructed Kane to handle. Kane must have been very confident for him to take full responsibility without involving the chief of Oasis Clinic. Yet it had somehow gone wrong. Combined with Belle's earlier words, it seemed someone had interfered. They clearly did not care about Kane's involvement. Felix took out his phone and called Kane. "Mr. Zeller." "Velocis Ventures wasn't chosen by Stellar Group as their business partner." What? On the other end, Kane felt like he had been hit by a bomb and instantly broke into a cold sweat. The consequences of this were extremely serious. If Felix thought he was being toyed with, Kane's life would definitely be in danger. "Mr. Zeller, I... I really don't know. I..." "Who did you talk to?" Felix was a reasonable person. From his interactions with Kane recently, he knew Kane was loyal to Dragon Alliance. So naturally, he would not

Felix was quite surprised by the person who entered. Joshua turned with a scowl and was about to bark out. But he suddenly froze and quickly changed his tone. "Ms... Ms. Cooper? Why are you here?" Indeed, it was Yvonne who had arrived. From Joshua's address, Felix guessed that Yvonne had to be the president of Stellar Group. What a coincidence! "As president, am I not allowed at Stellar Group's city-within-a-city partnership gala?" Yvonne entered with a stern expression, followed by two others who appeared to be high-level executives. "Of course, I... I was just surprised. Please forgive me." After sitting down, Yvonne spoke, "Notify Warren Quinton of Velocis Ventures that Stellar Group has added another partnership slot for the city-within-a-city project. It's for his company." "Yes, ma'am!" One of the executives left immediately. Joshua had a bad feeling. "Ms. Cooper, won't the other five partner companies object to this?" Yvonne gave him a cold and disdainful look. "

What? Daniel looked at Kane in disbelief, then back at Felix. Could this man before him actually be the mysterious Dragon Lord of Dragon Alliance? Kane was furious. After receiving Felix's call, he rushed to the gala right away. He would not dare discuss such matters over the phone. He could only come and apologize to Felix in person. After finishing his sentence, Kane immediately knelt before Felix. "My lord! I have failed in my duties. Please punish me as you see fit." Suddenly, loud laughter rang out. "Lord Kane, your acting is truly impressive." Even Daniel was startled. Why was Joshua causing trouble at such a critical moment? "Uncle Daniel, you really believed that? I've checked. Felix is Lord Kane's relative and is even younger than Lord Kane. Now that you're here, Lord Kane is putting on this act to protect Felix. I must say that it's very convincing." Daniel frowned, barely containing his anger. "Kane, is he your relative? Did you think I'm an idiot and could be
